there are families who possess a relation of military navy that is passed from era to generation. in 1898, john s. dyer sr. was born. there was no intimation that more than 100 years later, his grandson, charles dyer, 28, would continue the legacy of military mending. and as john s. dyer ii, 71, when he reflects on a son that came along late in his life, he gets just a bit choked up.

PSA or Warning? Slow-Roasted Tomatoes

Consider this either a public service announcement or a warning siren. You see, two years ago just about now, I was obsessed, completely, with learning all the tips and tricks for slow-roasting tomatoes. All the recipes suggested roasting tomatoes for an hour. Me, over 17 batches of slow-roasted tomatoes, I kept stretching and stretching the oven time until finally settling on the ’sweet spot’ for slow-roasted tomatoes roasted for …

… yes, an entire ten to twelve hours. Talk about ‘low and slow’.

So why is a two-years-ago obsession a public service announcement? Because late summer and early fall is the time to roast tomatoes, the window is short, and once you’ve done one batch, you’ll want to roast more tomatoes, so you need to allow time, lots of time, lots of slow time. Don’t let the season pass you by, it will be another whole year before it returns!

So why should something as simple and natural as roasting tomatoes be setting off warning sirens? Because you, too, may become equally obsessed, so much so that you begin stalking the tomato man for more of the small, meaty tomatoes that are needed? that you nearly burst into tears when you hear that this year’s crop is stingy? that you wonder how to get along an entire winter without a big stash in the freezer? Aii, enough about me but really, it’s enough to make a girl go out and buy a whole hog.

The thing is, once you figure out the details that work for you, with your own oven, with your own taste buds, with the tomatoes that you grow or purchase, you never go back. You watch what others do, you maybe tweak a little, but really, you’ve got your tomato roasting gig down, you’re not giving it up.

Will Wright, creator of The Sims, talks about his latest game, Spore

On Sunday, Electronic Arts will release Spore, one of the industry’s most anticipated game in years. The title lets players design creatures, develop tribes and civilizations and, eventually, take over the universe. Spore sprang from the quirky imagination of Will Wright, who also came up with Sim City and The Sims, a game franchise that’s sold more than 100 million copies in the past 8 years. What’s Spore like? We caught up with Wright at Comic-con in San Diego.

Watch Wright fashion a digital creature from scratch using the Spore Creature Creator.

Watch more interviews with Wright after the jump.

The Spore Creature Creator was released in June, allowing players to create and upload more than 3 million creatures in as many months. Wright explains how people develop stories around their digital creatures.

Players of Spore took days to turn up programming bugs that would take engineers months or years to find, Wright said. Then they lobby the company to keep the bugs.

Here, Wright talks about the types of critters players have created.

McCain: Senile, But *Really* Quick on His Feet…

…according to Andrea Mitchell, McCain is too dumb to have outperformed Obama in a debate using his two and a half decades of Senate experience. But oddly enough the senile old fart is smart enough to assemble answers out of thin air given just a few minutes’ lead time:

Bloomberg.com: U.S.
John McCain. Tim Pawlenty Rob Portman Mitt Romney. Mark Salter. Joe Lieberman. Barack Obama … Profit Exceeds Estimates on Phone Subscribers, Sales of DVDs …

mr. gregory: andrea mitchell, that’s a pretty go contrast.

MS. ANDREA MITCHELL: Oh, absolutely. And, you know, there was the crisp, immediate, forceful response by John McCain, clearly in a comfort zone because he was with his base. And Barack Obama, taking a risk in going there but seeing an opportunity. And a much more nuanced approach. The Obama people must feel that he didn’t do quite as well as they might have wanted to in that context, because that — what they’re putting out privately is that McCain may not have been in the cone of silence and may have had some ability to overhear what the questions were to Obama.

Reverse bel air

MR. GREGORY: Right.

MS. MITCHELL: He seemed so well prepared.

In other words, there is only one rational explanation for McCain being able to beat The Lightworker.

Obviously, he cheated.

I’m struggling to understand the “journalistic principle” at work here. Let me guess: the media didn’t report the Edwards scandal because…

1) It was unsubstantiated, and as we all know, the media would never run with such a serious allegation until it was thoroughly researched.

2) Except, of course, if it comes directly from the Obama campaign (in which the normal evidentiary burdens are waived). After all, what possible motive could the Democratic candidate have for spreading a malicious rumor about his opponent?
